DESCRIPTION:Serious philosophical reflection on personal identity began wi
 th John Locke’s Essay concerning Human Understanding in the early Enligh
 tenment – in which Locke developed his famous concept of personal identi
 ty as continuity of consciousness. Or so the story is often told.\n\nThis 
 seminar explores the rich and interesting array of views on personal ident
 ity in the earlier seventeenth century\, arguing that reflection on bodily
  resurrection both gave shape to – and was shaped by – a profound tran
 sformation of self-understanding in wider Western philosophy.
